1 Custom Window Treatments Child Safety Guide SAFETY FIRST. STYLE SECOND TO NONE.

2 Safety First. Style Second to None. Consumers have not yet replaced or retrofitted millions of older treatments, and new parents and pet owners are sometimes unaware of potential cord dangers. The window covering industry has redesigned its corded products and developed cord-safety standards to respond to child safety concerns. Looped pull cords were eliminated from mini-blinds (1995), permanent tie-down devices were attached to vertical blinds and traverse draperies (1997), built-in cord stops were added to horizontal blinds and corded shades (2001), and steps were initiated to reduce the hazards posed by accessible inner cords (2009). Because cordsafety features are now built into window coverings, we believe parents will feel more confident about their child s safety if they replace their older window coverings with the products now available, explains the Window Covering Safety Council. We also recommend that parents consider using cordless window coverings in children s bedrooms and play areas. CHILD SAFETY GUIDE 2

3 Window treatments might not immediately come to mind as home safety hazards, but as recent media reports confirm, they could be especially if industry standards and government regulations are not followed. Parents and caregivers should pay close attention to window cord safety and the danger of children accidentally strangling in window cords. Strangulation can occur when a child places his/her neck between the exposed inner cord and the fabric on the backside of the blind or when a child pulls the cord out and wraps it around his/her neck. Pet owners should also be aware of this problem, since a stray cord can also easily entrap a frolicsome pup or inquisitive cat. For your peace of mind, please be aware that all Smith & Noble window treatments conform to industry and government safety standards. Further, our installers are instructed not to install any of our products without their associated safety devices. CHILD SAFETY GUIDE 3

4 Products & Enhancements Every Smith & Noble window treatment conforms strictly to today s safety standards, including permanent tie-down devices and built-in cord stops. For additional child and pet safety, consider these affordable styles and upgrades: To help consumers easily identify products that are best suited for use in homes with young children, the Window Coverings Manufacturers Association (WCMA) has created the Best For Kids certification program. While all of our window treatments are safe for homes with children or pets, the Best For Kids criteria is even more stringent, and many of our window treatments have been certified under this program by third-party testing laboratories. Look for the Best For Kids seal on the Product Chart on page 8. MOTIVIA MOTORIZATION REMOTE Raise and lower an entire room of window treatments with a single remote.

6 Products & Enhancements CORD CLEATS WAND CONTROL ROLLER OPERATION SHUTTERS All Smith & Noble cord-operated shades and blinds come with easyto-install cord cleats that allow you to secure cords by wrapping them around a metal or clear plastic cleat mounted on the wall or window frame. The wand control option allows you to open and close some products with a wand rather than cords. It s an easier way to open large vertical treatments such as drapery, and a wand can be used to tilt open blinds. The spring-like clutch lifting system in our Roller and Solar Shades eliminates any potential hazard caused by loose lift cords. Shutters are cordless by design, eliminating any potential hazard caused by cords. Smith & Noble shutters are available in Eco-Wood, Teak Wood or Newport materials. Cord cleats come at no extra charge with: Natural Woven Shades Honeycomb Shades Fabric Roman Shades Pleated Shades Wood Blinds Durawood Blinds Metal Blinds Available as a no charge option on: Drapery Panel Track Vertical Sheer Shadings Wood Blinds with wand tilt on cordless Durawood Blinds with wand tilt on cordless CHILD SAFETY GUIDE 6

7 Optimizing Safety We trust that our safety suggestions and product solutions will safeguard you and your loved ones. Converting to safe, new window treatments or retrofitting old ones is vitally important. Our FREE safety kits let you retrofit outdated window treatments. You can maximize safety when pets or children under the age of six are present by following these easy rules. For more information, we encourage you to call our knowledgeable Customer Service representatives at Replace window blinds, corded shades and draperies manufactured before 2001 with today s safer products, which include safety features such as loop control, cordless operation and wand pull. Install only cordless window coverings in children s bedrooms and play areas. Move all cribs, beds, furniture, toys, and climbable surfaces away from windows and window cords, preferably to a non-windowed wall. Never allow anything to dangle into a bed or crib. When a child is able to push up on his or her hands or knees, remove any toys strung across the crib or playpen. Crib comforters, bumpers and baby pillows can pose a safety hazard; don t put fluffy soft comforters or pillows inside the crib, where they might smother a baby. Test all smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors and replace the batteries. Keep all window pull cords and inner lift cords out of the reach of children. Make sure that tassel pull cords are short, that continuous - loop cords are permanently anchored to the floor or wall, and that cord stops are properly installed and adjusted to limit movement of inner lift cords. Lock cords into position whenever horizontal blinds or shades are lowered, including when they come to rest on a windowsill. Be sure to install and consistently use included safety features such as cord cleats and tensioning devices. Cover all electrical outlets. Make sure that the covers cannot be removed, and are large enough to prevent a choking hazard. Make sure the changing table has safety straps, and store baby-care products well out of the child s reach. Consider installing window guards to keep children from falling out of an open window. Just make sure that each window guard has a quick release mechanism in case an emergency exit is necessary.
